raised christian but honestly don't practice, still have belief in God though. don't make this about religion tho lmao
find something else to do that "scratches the same itch" if it's boredom. learn an instrument, pick up a new video game, do physical activity. if you gotta wank or release some sexual pressure then try to redefine your own relationship with masturbation/orgasm. do it in the shower or just without a phone, without looking at things, don't link it to whatever fetish, craving, or though that gets you going on these threads.
you'll probably then find that you're into vastly different stuff, or that masturbation/porn/whatever is something that really fucks with your whole view of yourself and sex. that's fine, that's normal, you don't need to go crazy and nofap or whatever. just realize that and then try to frame "what else could I realistically be working on if I didn't spend all of that time, energy, or mental capacity on this retarded shit?" then you should probably feel a lot of regret/remorse, and take action so that you can prove to yourself that you can do a whole lot more. then everything here kinda falls by the wayside, it's not that deep. you just can't give up on yourself by resorting to this as the default once you've proven there are good alternatives in your life. you can go make it happen any time, everything else is an excuse.
